| • FREE & OPEN SOURCE [Article] [Definition] Books: [The Cathedral and the Bazzar] [Free as in Freedom] All software is built with source code. Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. Open source means the code is open and you can see it, change it, learn from it. Bugs are more quickly found and fixed. And when customers don't like how one vendor is serving them, they can choose another without overhauling their infrastructure. That means: No more arbitrary pricing. No more technology lock-in. No more monopolies. [Computing Research Repository] [see also "Gift Culture"] | |||
